[cite]Love and Warhol[/cite] by Sean Lennon and Charlotte Kemp Muhl is a 2016 single that hasn't been released commercially and isn't currently on an album. But since it's 2016 music, this thread seems to be the best place to mention it. The song was written for an Andy Warhol exhibit and is available on SoundCloud.

I also like these weird bluegrass bands like The Steeldrivers. I have two Steeldrivers albums in my iTunes library. Thanks for the suggestion. I'm listening to their eponymous album as I type this. Anyway, I think danzig6767 has hit the nail on the head when he says that "hipster" is "thrown around to loosely." It's like "rock." You hear one of those terms, and you still have no idea what the music is about. I recall the days when we could call radio stations with requests. We always figured that if a station would play Snopek, it was cool. Smaller stations in Milwaukee and Madison would do that, along with a reservation station in northwestern Wisconsin. I stopped listening to commercial radio a long, long time ago. The big fat flaw is that artists have to fit their music to a formula to get played. It was a major bummer when Madison's WIBA suddenly changed from a free-flowing format to a commercially dictated format circa 1980. (Before that, they'd fulfill requests for Snopek. ) If there's good commercial music that I end up liking, I've likely found out about it through one of the ways that danzig6767 mentioned… just like I would have found out about music that hasn't been acknowledged commercially. Satellite and the Internet have helped considerably. iTunes has been huge. There are streaming services like Pandora and Spotify. And of course, word of mouth has always been around. But the fact that listeners are looking for something other than what's considered "popular" doesn't make them "hipsters." People are simply looking for good blues, jazz, punk, classical, folk, country, rock and roll, bluegrass, or whatever.

We don't hear about players being placed on waivers because that information is never announced. If we get the info, it's because of a "reliable" leak or it's because something that's announced (like a DFA) might involve waivers.

I got MLBtv for the first time this season and have been occasionally watching games. I access it with an AppleTV and while generally positive, the app is about 3/4 complete. It always starts with the last game of the season, game 7 WS, and requires a click to navigate 1 game, so to watch something a couple months back is 60 clicks - lame. Yeah, the app for the third generation Apple TV sucks that way. You can avoid repeated clicking by holding down the "left" button on the remote's wheel. When you do that, the app will speed up, and you'll move back much more quickly. Still, moving about is not as easy as one would like. On the fourth generation Apple TV, there's a calendar available that speeds things up considerably. Highlight the date and click. A calendar will appear, and you can navigate from that.

Going off topic, here are some other artists who went a long time between albums: Violent Femmes (2016): 16 years between studio albums; 10 years after a live album; 1 year after a vinyl EP (which hardly counts) The Suburbs (2013): 27 years between studio albums; 20 years after a CD of previously released material Sunblind Lion (2014): 36 years between studio albums; 34 years after a live album

I find that stalls are frequently much more disgusting, especially if you have to deal with moving the seat. Plus, there's the potential issue of tying it up if someone might "really" need it. As far as the original issue, I've never really thought about it and haven't paid attention to the personal choices of others. But at the risk of getting way too personal, I guess how I operate depends on the pair of pants I'm wearing.

Good point. Jukeboxes have been streaming since the availability of broadband Internet.

I acquired quite a bit of music last year, but most of it was released previous to 2016. Some 2016 releases, in no particular order: The Claypool Lennon Delirium - [cite]Monolith of Phobos[/cite] Sunblind Lion - [cite]Live Lion Volume II[/cite] Violent Femmes - [cite]We Can Do Anything[/cite] The Abler Boys - [cite]See in Sound[/cite] The Cactus Blossoms - [cite]You're Dreaming[/cite] By the way, if you ever get a chance to see Sunblind Lion, do it. Guys in their sixties performing original 70s-style rock with albums released in 1976, 1978, 1980, 2014, and 2016.

August 11 vs. the Braves. That was the game where the Brewers scored in every inning. On May 17th vs. the Cubs, Chase Anderson took a no-hitter into the eighth inning and a shutout into the ninth.

Watch the articles on Appleinsider for deals. You can frequently save a couple hundred dollars (or more, depending on model), get free shipping, bypass sales tax, and get about $50 off on AppleCare. If you scroll down, you can locate expired offers to get an idea of how they work and how good the deals have been. Then watch for new offers and take advantage when you think the time is right.

LE, what you'd like obviously makes sense. But my guess is that power goes to the switch, then to the patio light, then to the motion lights. I don't see that being easy to change without running another hot wire somewhere. If the power comes to the patio light then runs back to the switch, things could be changed around in the box that supports the patio light. But if the patio light was wired that way, the electrician probably would have bypassed the switch to begin with. You never know, though. It wouldn't hurt to ask either the landlord or the electrician. The thought of a timer that would replace one of the three-way switches occurs to me, but that won't help you get from the car to the house. I wonder the bottom of the stairs is close enough to one of the switches for a remote option to work. The easiest solution might be to make sure that the patio light has an LED bulb. Its wattage would likely be low enough that it wouldn't use enough electricity to be significant, and it would likely last long enough that replacement cost shouldn't be a big deal either.

When the temperature gets cold, it's logical to make sure that your tires have enough air. However, the two places I checked yesterday didn't have air available because it was too cold for the air pumps to function.

In case you're not keeping close track of the Gabor sisters, Zsa Zsa was best known for being married a jillion times and being a guest star everywhere. Her sister Eva was the "GOODBYE CITY LIFE" voice of Green Acres. The third Gabor sister was Magda. Zsa had nine husbands, Eva had five, and Magda had six. George Sanders was married to both Zsa Zsa and Magda. Their mother Jolie made it a four-ring circus. She was married only three times.

I've seen it so often that I'm not even weirded out by it anymore. Note that I'm not saying that I don't think it's weird; it's just that I've become immune. It sure seems like an invitation to a wet hand or wet clothing.

unless i've missed a transaction, the last time the brewers took a player in the major league phase of the rule 5 draft and traded him that same day was in 2006, when they took lhp edward campusano and traded him to detroit for cash. Maybe that's what I was thinking of. At any rate, after reviewing past draft results, I don't see anything involving the Rockies.

The deal was likely pre-arranged. The Cubs likely wanted this guy and didn't want him to slip away before their pick came up. I'm sure that Milwaukee was adequately compensated for the favor. I believe the Brewers selected a player for the Rockies in a similar fashion not too long ago.

MilwaukeeBeers, please read over the section on language in Fan Forum Etiquette.

The article's saying that the cash alternative for the PTBNL is $100.

Yeah, I believe a player has to be with his team for the full season in order for it to be eligible to receive a pick.

Welcome to the board. Yeah, Rule 5 has been mentioned. It's also been hinted at that it could take up to six months for the PTBNL to be named.

A five-year wait pretty much ensures that a player won't un-retire. But executives (and managers) could easily un-retire at any time, waiting period or not. These guys have generally served so long that I think they're in a reasonable position to be evaluated. Nothing's going to change a whole lot in a year or three.

It's completely done, for now. Phase 2 is slated to start next year, I believe, but may be delayed a year or two. It's annoying when construction is partially done and plans to complete it aren't immediate. We have that situation right now between Milwaukee and Chicago. Southern Milwaukee County and Racine County have become one big fat bottleneck because that stretch has fewer lanes than the roads to the north and the south.

If you lose your checkbook and someone goes on a shopping spree with your checkbook there is very little to nothing the bank can do for you. The bank will bounce all the fraudulent checks for you. Then you hope the local district attorney notices that the checks were bounced legitimately rather than because you didn't bother to make good. But you make a good point. I'd rather give out my credit card number than my bank account number, especially with all the breaches going around. Except for the hassle of updating auto-payments, credit card numbers are easily changed. Hopefully, with services like ApplePay, we'll be able to limit how often we give out credit card numbers too.

Traffic on Madison's Beltline definitely moves more slowly than on most city freeways, even when traffic is light or moderate. I think the main reason is that local drivers prefer it that way. We're frequently told that the 85th percentile speed is usually a good thing. And in this case, if it happens to be slower than the posted speed limit, I can deal with it. The only thing I consistently have trouble with is that many Madison drivers don't merge well. Many of them enter the highway at 35[space][/space]mph or so when it isn't necessary. Speaking of Verona Road, how's the construction going? I avoid that stretch like the plague and cut around it on McKee Road. I was doing that even before the construction started. That has me entering Hwys 18/151 at the last traffic signal, just before the speed limit increases to 65[space][/space]mph.

Patrick, thanks for the link in post[space][/space]895. One of the cards I've been looking into is listed. Also, the site confirms that 1.5% is a good rate for straight cash rewards. Logan, I get that it's now easier to monitor one's checking account than it used to be and that my fears about not keeping track are largely unwarranted. I keep thinking back to the olden days when ATMs first became readily available and monitoring wasn't easy. Still, as Patrick says, you can overdraft bank accounts. Also, using a simple example, if you have $10,000 in your checking account and a $10,000 credit line, that's $20,000 that you have to play with. All you really have to know is that you can pay for what you buy when the time comes. But that time can be next week or later in the month rather than today. I think the bottom line is that there are a lot of approaches that individuals can take. If I want cash and Patrick wants miles, that's fine. Cash rewards can be spread more easily across more than one card while it's probably good to concentrate one's miles in one place. But miles may have a better payoff in the end as long as you can use them. Probably the most important aspect of rewards is that they're useful to the customer and easy to redeem. And if one person prefers debit and another likes credit, that's fine too. The trick is to do what's best for you while avoiding the things that are bad for everyone. wallus brings up an interesting point about the merchant's end of things. I figure that smaller businesses should do what's best for themselves and that I can deal with it accordingly. I'm fine with paying the self-employed handyman in cash. I had an electrician who did things the old fashioned way; he sent me a bill and gave me 30 days to pay. And if someone wanted to offer a cash discount or charge 3% for using a card, I can go with that too. But Woodman's is still a pain. I usually don't think about the fact that they don't take credit cards until I walk in. If I'm prepared, I'll have the extra cash on hand before I leave the house. But 90% of the time, it doesn't happen that way, and I delve into the cash that I like to keep with me for emergencies. Their selection is great, and I'll go there when I know they have something in particular that I want. For occasional times that I need it, their beer and wine selection is extremely impressive. But they'd likely become my main shopping destination if they took credit cards.
